Revisit Week – Bees

As you can probably guess here, I love doing macro shots and I love going for macro shots of bees.  Normally I am a bit leery around bees because when I have been stung I do swell up but for some reason when going in for the bee shots, I become a bit fearless and they seem to ignore or accept me.  Well, most of the time anyway.  There have been a few times when I have had to back out of the flowers.

Be kind to bees and be careful with your use of chemicals for without them we will be at a loss.

    Wonderful shots, Teri. I must admit, though, to being a bit leery of collections of macro shots of Nature, even when identified as being about bees, as yours here. Some people will sneak a spider pic in the group and I’ll have the heebie-jeebies for the rest of the day/night. Thanks for not doing that. 🙂

  3. This is a great collage, I love pictures of nature. I hope you are feeling better.
